Easter fun and the Getaway

It's amazing how fast April has gone. I guess life flies by when you're having fun.

Work continues to go well and I am enjoying being able to contribute to the office again.

In early April, I celebrated life with the GGG - the Gunn Girls Getaway, which was a fun-filled trip to Las Vegas with Mom, Colleen, Ellen and Amy (various Gunn girls). We had fantastic accommodations at the Encore and shopped, dined and took in shows over the 3 days, as well as a lot of visiting and laughing. Having just taken my last dose of anti-rejection medicine before leaving, I was even able to enjoy a glass of wine (or two - it was Vegas after all!). The celebration is likely to be repeated annually from now on!


We arrived back in Calgary in time for Easter Sunday and had fun decorating cupcakes with Spring-coloured icing with Jack and Davis (their parents helped eat the icing)...the boys are really getting grown up now and love hanging with Papa as well as watching "Monsters" when they visit. It's hard to imagine they'll be 3 in June.
Health wise things continue to be good. Last week I had a small bump to get over after influenza A gave me high fevers and a cough, but this week I am feeling much better, and the clinic's concoctions seem to be addressing the issue. It seems this new immune system is able to fight infections, so that's good to know.
With the Flames in the playoffs and the hope of no-snow season coming, I am feeling pretty optimistic. I move in to my new condo June 1st, so I am also doing a little planning for that. Overall, life's pretty sweet right now.
